4 time cy young winner and maybe the most unbelieveable year by a lefty. 1972. The Phillies were horseshit and the team won 59 games and he won 27 with an E.R.A. of 1.97! He had a era less than 3.00 8 times. The guy had a 3 pitch arsenal that not many can match and one of the top 3 three sliders in modern history. Yes, he sucked. Pure ignorance. In other news, Ted Williams fucking blew!

I was at Games 4 and 5. Sat near Donald Sutherland. Carlton pitched well in Games 1 and 5, Rogers was lights out. Those twohad some good matchups in 80 and 81. Of course my best memory is Schmidt's home run in Olympic Stadium to give the Phils the NL East crown, which led to the World Series title.

We could have passed each other at the time... I actually shook Mr. Sutherland's hand once at the Big O, he didn't look like a sympathetic dude the way he used to dress when he went, but he was nice enough when I met him.
